== Divide CC list into 3 categories ==
  +
  +
The ingame CC menu divides content into 3 categories- Apparel (including paint jobs), Weapons, and World. Same should be done here; not a big deal right now but for when more CC content gets added. [[Special:Contributions/208.87.233.201|208.87.233.201]] 17:35, September 18, 2017 (UTC)

== "Obtaining" section may be redundant ==
  +
  +
I personally don't think the Obtaining section is needed in the tables since how it is obtained is briefly explained in each item's description in the CC store. I think it should be replaced by player notes and guides (including tips/tricks/trivia) on the specific item. I suggest copy/pasting the obtaining method from the CC store directly into the Description section of the table. [[User:Eddo36|Eddo36]] ([[User talk:Eddo36|talk]]) 08:30, October 14, 2017 (UTC)
  +
  +
: The removal of obtaining might be an option, but to include the tips/tricks we would have to change our entire article content policy as it does read ''"All content needs to be objective. Opinions, gameplay strategy, and "my favorite"-style passages should not be added to articles. Accordingly, guides may only be posted as subpages of one's user page or as a blog."''

::The "Obtaining" column is maybe too detailed right now but I'd like to keep it. For weapons and apparel it could say "Through the quest XYZ", "Directly deposited in inventory", "To be crafted on a weapons workbench". Until the community votes on wether or not we can create articles for each mod we should keep the column since the information isn't available elsewhere. --[[user:YoDsanklai|YOD]] [[User talk:YoDsanklai|ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ]] 09:39, October 14, 2017 (UTC)

== Canon vs. Non ==
  +
  +
This may be beating a dead horse, I'm not sure, but couldn't we determine, from past material, what from the CC could be considered canon or not? Certain items are known in the lore.

: Well, I'd personally think the Creation Club content in general could be considered Semi-Canon. Considering that Bethesda may have made some content that would make sense and others that would be wacky, but that is just me. Regardless, I think we should mark pages with the CCC template as a compromise for now. Similar to section of pages marked as "non-canon" (ex: Canon pages with Van Buren info like NCR).
  +
  +
: Because I can tell that withholding information, made by a company who made the game, for the wiki would not sit well with some people.

Seems fair, I'll keep a look out. If nothing else, I'm hoping we can all agree the Chinese stealth and Hellfire armors, as well as tunnel snakes, is Canon lol. Since it's so rooted in lore. Others I could see being semi, like the Doom gun and horse armor. {{unsigned|Dovahdude}}

Understood. But like others have said, it's publishes by Bethesda. Sure, perhaps some of them were worked on by others, but with full oversight by the company that made the game and added by them.

:: Since we are now a while in regarding CC I believe we should allow edits regarding CC content on other pages but possibly mark them. After all while CC may be showing conflicts with lore it is officially sold by Bethesda and created by Bethesda (although in some cases via contractors). While things like the Prey Suit seems questionable it is possible that Bethesda games share Universes to some extent or that Bethesda Franchises exist in fictional form in the Fallout Universe. For example the Prey Suit could be Replica Prop an of in-game pre-war movie. So I believe we should consider it canon unless any official statement says otherwise.

== Sliders ==
  +
  +
While I find the sliders make sense in order to shorten the page I do believe if makes the page lose proper overviews of bundle content/available content. For one there is no easy way to see all available canines at once anymore. I do believe this is not a good choice.
  +
  +
Additionally I feel like the style of the sliders just isn't good and doesn't fit properly with the page an their intended purpose here. At this small size the navigation and caption takes close to 50% of the space available for the image. This makes is somewhat bothersome to see any detail on the pictures. Sure you can click them if you want to see more detail but at this point it is kind of difficult to make out much on the thumbs there.

The navigation is an issue through, if I try and trim maybe 5-10% of the width, and/or add some transparency that should assist with that. The expand button is absolute garbage though, I'll have a look through the gallery documentation to see if I can do away with it. I also plan to fix the alignment of the sliders too.
